Prince Harry lost his mom, Princess Diana, when he was just 12 years old. It is a difficult time for a boy to lose his mother at that young an age. However, the royal personality has opened up to the public about how his mom influenced him.
"All I want to do is make my mother incredibly proud. That's all I've ever wanted to do," says Prince Harry in an exclusive interview with People.
He felt helpless when he flew to Afghanistan to save lives in the Apache helicopter. "How can I use my name and that spotlight to the best effect?"
He recalls that moment when he was young. When Princess Diana passed away, he felt that "there was a gaping hole." And he was not just talking about him but also everyone who loved her, around the world.
For his part, that's his passion and career-choice. Prince Harry has dedicated the Invictus Games for the wounded warriors around the world. He's been promoting the games for the second time this year and already has more than 500 athletes competing. His military experience encouraged him to make sure that these men are recognized and to support his fellow service members.
"I enjoy what I do. But I don't do things because I feel as though my mother would want me to do them," said the Prince in the exclusive interview. He knows he's got a lot of Princess Diana's qualities in him and wants to do what she would have done when she was and if she were alive right now.
Creating the Invictus Games, he explained, was "almost like a cure for that pain I had back then."
